There’s

no way out of an angry crowd
 
Without s

teppin’ on some toes
E 
 
They’ll s
E 
cream your name ’til the lights go out
 
Then they’ll  
A 
feed you to the wolves

It’s

hard to say who you’ll be when they let

E 
To know me is to hate me
 
Is to hate what I’ve become

Were you

freed

Did you  
B 
leave your skin?
 
Are you  
A 
tethered in your doubt?
 
Have you  
A 
breathed it in ’til it’s  
B 
medicine
 
That you  
A 
cannot live without?
 
‘Cause you  
C#m 
came back home a f**kin’  
B 
alien
 
And we’re stuck

here on the ground
 
Call your

Before the high
